Benefits Of Carpet Cleaning

There is a perception that carpets cannot be kept clean and sanitary, and, therefore, significantly contribute to indoor environmental deterioration, especially air quality. This misconception has caused the removal of carpets in some public agencies, health care facilities, and schools. Ineffective cleaning deprives occupants and consumers of the desirable features carpet provides.

Aside from improving the appearance of a home and extending the life of a rug, professional carpet cleaning has valuable health benefits. Carpet cleaning is not done simply for the visual effects. It is an investment in the wellness and health of those who live or occupy the space there. The American Lung Association's recommendation for vacuuming is at least three times each week in homes that house asthma and snoring sufferers. Having carpets cleaned annually provides additional benefits for those suffering with those ailments.

1. Eliminates Trapped Pollutants

The Environmental Protection Agency reports that dirty carpets retain sources of indoor pollutants to the air. Besides everyday dust and dirt, they contain particle pollutants, lead, cockroach allergens, and pet dander. Toxic airborne gases adhere to the particulate matter and become trapped in the carpet. When people vacuum or walk over carpet, the toxic gases are released into the air that is now contaminated.

2. Improves Air Quality

Vacuuming removes contaminants from the carpet surface. The indoor air quality of your home or business is said to be 10 times more polluted than the outside air. When the contaminants penetrate deep into the carpet, breathing can become difficult as some of those particles are released in the air by simply walking on it. Those who suffer from asthma and allergies find breathing easier after carpets have been professionally cleaned. The risk of allergen-induced attacks is reduced by improved indoor air quality.
